Good to know before you buy:

• Height: at about 2.3 m tall with the HR unit, check your ceiling height and any overhead pipes, ducts or shelving before ordering.
• Cold water: Scots Ice states this model requires a cold water connection, which the heat recovery system uses. The Dihr spec sheet also shows a hot water inlet, so have your licensed plumber follow the spec sheet. Dihr notes it is not for reverse-osmosis (osmotic) water.
• Power: 14.8 kW on 400V three phase. It must be connected by a licensed electrician. We supply the equipment only.
• Access: a very large, heavy machine (1490mm wide), delivered by tailgate truck to the front of your premises. Moving it inside needs suitable equipment and wide access, so check doorways and corridors first.

Common questions:

What does the heat recovery system do?
The HR system saves energy and reduces the steam released into the kitchen, which makes it more comfortable to work in and helps where ventilation is limited.

How tall is it?
Scots Ice lists it at 2320mm high with the heat recovery unit. Allow extra room above for access.

Do you install it?
We supply the equipment only. It must be connected by a licensed electrician and a licensed plumber in your area.
